Chapter 55: Entertaining Huang Nizi, the lovely Tiedan and Goudan

Mingdai picked up a few things from the cabinet in the corner, put them in a basket and carried them over.

First, he opened a can, scooped two spoonfuls of maltose into a bowl, poured boiling water into it, and handed it to the three people.

Aunt Huang was horrified: "Oh my! My mother can just give us some hot water to drink, why would she need such expensive things!"

Tiedan and Goudan stared at the fragrant bowl eagerly, they had never tasted this before!

Ming Dai took out three spoons and put them in the bowl, stirring it for Goudan and Tiedan. "Why is it so expensive? Aren't they all for people to drink? Auntie has come to my place with great difficulty and brought me so many dishes. Giving you a bowl of malt extract is expensive? Auntie is really looking down on me."

Maltose?!

Tiedan's eyes lit up, this is something so good that you can't even drink it when you are sick!

Auntie Huang smiled and tapped Mingdai's head: "You, your hands are too loose! Don't do that next time!"

Ming Dai smiled and said, "It's not like I'd give it to anyone who comes. I've already poured it out. Auntie, try it and see if it's sweet."

Auntie Huang also thought that since she was already drunk, she might as well try the taste of the maltose that people in the city drank.

"Okay! I'll also enjoy the happiness with Miss Xiao Ming and taste the malted milk that people in the city drink!"

Watching grandma drink it, she didn't even need two spoons and poured it into her mouth. If it wasn't too hot, she would have swallowed it in one gulp!

When Auntie Huang drank malted milk, she felt it had a milky and sweet taste. It was extremely delicious. No wonder it was so expensive!

Looking at the two boys again, they had already finished drinking and were licking their bowls. They immediately grabbed two chestnuts and said, "Drinking beef! Aren't you ashamed?"

Ming Dai smiled and touched Tie Dan's blushing head: "Why are you embarrassing yourself? It's not like we're strangers!"

After that, he scooped two spoonfuls for Tiedan and Maodan. Auntie Huang was so quick that she couldn't stop him: "Oh my! What are you doing to them again? They will leak after eating. Good stuff can't be preserved!"

Ming Dai glared at Aunt Huang while pouring water: "How can you say that about your own grandchildren? I think Tiedan and Goudan are much more well-behaved than other children, so I like them very much."

After that, he told the two people: "Boil it, stir it with a spoon, and drink it slowly."

Auntie Huang just felt that what the educated youth Xiao Ming said was so heartwarming. Even if she disliked her own grandson, it was only herself who disliked him. She would feel uncomfortable if outsiders said anything bad about him.

Seeing the three of them drinking happily, she took out a few pieces of calcium milk biscuits, a few pieces of peach cakes, and half a plate of sugar-roasted chestnuts.

Aunt Huang saw that Xiao Ming was a sincere educated youth and was not just being polite for the sake of face, so she didn't say any more nonsense and just hoped that she would protect her more in the future.

Mingdai frowned as she looked at the dirty black hand that Xiaogoudan stretched out, which was covered with many tiny cracks.

"Wait, Goudan, wash your hands before eating, or you'll have a stomachache."

Look at Tiedan again, it’s an enlarged version of the same little black hand.

Auntie Huang quickly hid her hand. Her hand was a little black one. PIUS!

Mingdai found it funny and went to the kitchen, took out a new enamel basin and a towel from the kitchen, filled them with hot water and brought them into the house.

I put it on the kang, wet the towel first, wiped Tiedan's face with it, and washed the towel. It was black.

Tiedan smiled embarrassedly.

I wiped Goudan's face again with the same black water. Goudan didn't feel shy, but giggled comfortably.

Aunt Huang was helpless because her grandson was just a simple-minded person.

Seeing her two grandsons who were obviously brighter, she got angry again. She wanted to scold Huang Dalian severely when she got back. What’s the matter? Can’t you even wash my grandsons’ faces clean?

After washing their faces, not caring about the dirty water, she soaked the four little dirty hands in hot water, took out soap and taught them how to wash their hands.

The two children were also obedient and learned well without losing their temper.

Aunt Huang took the tools, rubbed the two puppies' paws vigorously with soap, and washed her own big black hands at the same time, otherwise she would be too embarrassed to reach out.

Finally, he changed the basin of water and finally washed the hands of the three people thoroughly.

Mingdai also took some clam oil and applied it on her little hands and face, which made Auntie Huang exclaim that it was a waste!

Ming Dai pinched Xiaogouzi's face, which was already covered with frostbite, and said, "Auntie, be careful. Frostbite will leave scars on the face. Xiaogouzi, such a handsome boy, can't be unable to marry a pretty wife just because of the scar on his face."

Aunt Huang thought that there were indeed people with frostbite on their faces in the village, and she suddenly became nervous. She took the clam oil and applied another layer of it on her grandson.

After that, Mingdai took out some comic books and gave them to the two boys, letting them eat the fruit and read the books by themselves while she and Aunt Huang started chatting.

Aunt Huang also told her about the reservoir construction.

"Originally I was thinking of not letting you go, but your uncle said that if you don't go, the group of people at the educated youth point might target you. After all, you are a group, so you still have to go."

Ming Dai nodded and said, "My uncle is right. I am the only one who is not going. It's not good to be the first to be shot. My uncle means well."

Aunt Huang nodded happily. What the old man said was right. Xiao Ming, the educated youth, understood it immediately and would definitely not be angry.

"Your uncle told you to be in charge of cooking. Your sister-in-law will also go and help you burn firewood in the shed. It's a bit tiring, but it's fine otherwise."

Ming Dai's eyes softened a little: "Thank you, Auntie. I am so lucky to have met you and my uncle."

Aunt Huang touched her hand lovingly and said, "You are still young, how can you do heavy work? If you are pressed down, you will not grow taller. Next year, your uncle is thinking about whether he can find a job for you in the commune. It will be better than working in the fields."

Ming Dai took the opportunity to reveal some of her plans: "Thank you so much, uncle! Auntie, I do know some medical skills. I learned from my father for a few years. I can treat common illnesses and it's no problem for me to be a barefoot doctor. If you feel uncomfortable, feel free to come to me. I have medicine and needles here. It's much more convenient than going to the commune!"

Aunt Huang looked at her in amazement: "How can a girl like you be so capable! You can do everything!"

Ming Dai touched her nose embarrassedly: "I have been weak and sickly since I was a child. I have taken a lot of medicine and naturally know a lot of prescriptions. In addition, my father is a doctor, so I have learned a lot from him."

Aunt Huang slapped her thigh!

"That's great. Our village is in need of a doctor. You can be the doctor of Liujiawan and stay in our village. I will give you full work points, and you don't have to worry about you being bullied in the commune!"

Ming Dai looked at her with admiration, which melted Auntie Huang's heart: "Auntie, you are so kind!"

Aunt Huang couldn't help but touch Mingdai's smooth and tender little face, which was as smooth as tofu, white and tender, and her pair of cat-like eyes could melt people.

She was even more certain in her heart that the third child in her family was not worthy!

"That's settled! I'll tell your uncle when I get back, there's no problem! We're leaving for the reservoir soon, so you should get ready and pack up the house."

After saying that, she looked at the person next to her and said, "Does that person have to follow you too?"

Ming Dai knew she was talking about Zhou Sinian, and nodded: "Of course he has to follow, but don't worry, he's obedient now!"
